Yeah, I was going to - I just wanted to check that it wasn't already a
known problem.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=233159

It looks like it's not consulting the p2installer.ini file, but that
doesn't matter since the p2installer.ini file doesn't contain the URL
anyway. And the documentation is still wrong on the Wiki.

Still, using the right URL and the command line args to set the system
property, it finally did work; at least in the sense of getting to
another error. This time, it complains 'No repository found at
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.4milestones/'

I only ask because I downloaded the installer from:

  http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/equinox/drops/S-3.4
RC1-200805161333/index.php#Provisioning

and when running it, it doesn't install the SDK as the documentation
suggests:

  http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Installer

* Get the installer for your platform from the equinox download page.
* Unzip the installer anywhere on your local disk
* Run the p2installer executable
* In the install wizard, select where you want to install the software

Shows a dialog with Where do you want to install null?

I had a look at the p2installer.ini:

-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
-vmargs
-Xdock:icon=../Resources/Eclipse.icns
-XstartOnFirstThread
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts

No mention of the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.installDescription that the
page suggests it looks for. I try adding it, and get a new message
saying the error is invalid. That's maybe because the URL that that
page points to is invalid:

  http://update.eclipse.org/eclipse/testUpdates/sdk-installer.properties
- 404 not found

* When finished, you can delete the installer

I deleted it. At least that worked ...

Dunno Alex.  This works fine for me on windows but I see your point on the Mac.

 I had a look at the p2installer.ini:

The doc is wrong.  The correct URL is

Cute.

Not really...

I should have mentioned...

- Please enter a bug for this with your good steps.  Thanks!
- We have been running the installer on windows and the Mac quite regularly and 
even via JNLP.  This must be a quirk in the build as the product definition
